A youth football coach in Utah has been arrested and charged with child abuse for allegedly stepping on to the field and hitting an opposing player as he ran down the sideline. The player reportedly suffered a concussion, which is a season-ending injury.

The coach insisted that he was in a "defensive position" and meant no harm to the player. He was not arrested until after the video went viral.

Watch the video below and tell us what you think in the comments section below. Do you think the coach intentionally hit the player? He obviously didn't get out of the way. Is that just as bad?
